As Peyton Manning has learned a quarterback can have a great frame, big-time arm, and all the other attributes to be a great player. However, it's a singular intangible that separates a great player from the legends of the game. While Landry Jones and his Artesia, N.M. teammates may not have shared a viewing audience similar to Manning's recent triumph that doesn't mean their accomplishment was any less impressive.

That's because Jones, in his first year as a starting quarterback, brought home a state title to the traditional New Mexico powerhouse. Not to mention the team went undefeated and dominated throughout the season, well until the state championship game.
